Rick Allen Posted April 26 Report Posted April 26 (edited) Pretty sure these brackets are attached to the cylinder head bolts at some location on the heads (R2 engine), does anyone have a diagram or can tell me where they should be and/or what attached to them ?

Bob Preston Posted April 26 Report Posted April 26 A picture might help. Also recommend getting your hands on a workshop manual.

The long one is the air cleaner support. The others are for the ignition shielding.

Dwight FitzSimons Posted April 27 Report Posted April 27 (edited) These (4 of them) attach to head bolts, and the stainless steel ignition shields mount to them. If you have the SS shields you can bolt these brackets to them, then hold the SS shield next to the cylinder head to determine location of the brackets. Or, just do some measurements. Page 56 in the Avanti Parts Catalog shows them, as RegnalBob has posted above. The Avanti Parts Catalog, as well as the Avanti Shop Manual are essential resources for working on an Avanti. They are excellent manuals. --Dwight Edited April 27 by Dwight FitzSimons

Rick Allen Posted April 28 Author Report Posted April 28 thanks to all who replied to my post with the information I need it, I do have both Factory manuals but I would never have thought to look in the electrical section for the location of these brackets,,,
